Just had an awful night coughing and being sick. Not much sleep. I was looking forward to bouncing like Tigger today but that seems to be unlikely as typing is taking all my energy! Not sure who we will ask for advice as Sundays are rest days and again not keen on a trip to a and e. Quite tricky to explain all thats going on with me over the phone. If you are reading this and would like to I would value your prayers.

Yesterdays dialysis went well and the blood transfusion straightforward. Matt brought an after dinner games box and we played one of those. Joy beating Chloe and I by a combination of luck and guesswork although I am sure she will say it was by amazing genius! Matt was quiz master. We also completed some crosswords and put the world to rights! Paul enjoyed his visit to London although we still wait for a demonstration of the height of the jumps!

My boys are looking forward to spending time together in Brighton. It is a great joy to have children who get on so well - there were days when we thought that might never happen.
